Thursday

"Close to Closure" & "Play for Bad Actors"

4th to 10th July

A photography Exhibition at the Back Loft

Part of PhotoIreland Festival

Times: 6-8pm 4th July & 1-7pm 5th-10th July

Close to Closure opens
up a range of perspectives on the contemporary world of an eclectic
group of photographers living and working in Dublin. Encompassing a
variety of techniques, styles and personal preoccupations this group
show is characterised by its vitality and variety. The subject matter
ranges from the highly personal to the almost political.

Close to Closure brings
together a group of award-winning photographers from different
backgrounds and nationalities who first came together at NCAD in 2009.
Since then this loose collective - comprising individuals from Ireland,
Poland and Romania – has continued to support individual and collective
endeavours and provided a platform for the exchange of ideas, projects
and information.

Close to Closure is our first exhibition together and will be held at the Back Loft Gallery, Dublin.

At the same time of "Close to Closure" photo exhibition the Back Loft is glad to presentthe hilariously funny play "Play for bad actors" written by Neil Sharpson and presented byInspirado Theatre Group as part of the "10 days in Dublin Festival".

Daily viewings from Thursday 5th-Tuesday 10th July, 8pm.

Set in an old Manor house, Godfrey, Gweneth and Buddy must survive the Madwoman on
the moors. This hour long show will have you guessing all the way. A play full of
unexpected twists and thrills and lots of outrageous comedy, you're
guaranteed to go home with a smile on your face.
